You can watch reviews of board games, but most folks give positive reviews to almost every game. So, how do you know for sure if you’ll like a game? If you can make it to a convention, getting a demo of the game is a good place to start. As previously mentioned, CMON had quite a few games in their booth ready and waiting for anyone who wanted to sit down and play. From what I could see, there was hardly any downtime. Games were rotating in and out all day and the tables were almost always at capacity.
